The Streets of Pomneii.

The city is of an irregular oval form,
about two miles in circumference, and
was walled except on the side nearest the
sea 1t had at least eight gates, probably
more, of which the best preserved and
probably the most ancient is the Nola.
The streets are narrow, from twelve to
fourteen feet wide, including the trottoirs
Some are even less, and the widest only
about thirty feet. Rows of high step
ping stones cross the street from side 10
side between the ~trottoirs for the convent
ence of pedestrians in rainy weather.
These stepping stones must have greatly
impeded the passage Of vehicles. The
walls, as before mentioned. are low, and
there is little left but the lower stories.
There is reason to suppose that upper
floors were slightly built. perhaps OF
wood, containing small rooms for the use
Of slaves. The walls facing on the streets
are blank, i'm most instances. the windows
Of the houses opening ON the open square
in the center. In some cases small shops
filled the front of houses without commu-
nicating with any other part of them,
unless perhaps a room ut the back. and
signs still remain showing the particular
business carried on in them.-Foreign
Letter.

Cautions Concerning Bathing.

How often is it necessary to bathe?
This depends both on the individual and
the nature of the bath. Some people,
who perspire freely, find il necessary to
battle daily, others require a bath only
three or four times a week. Taken in
discriminatory the Turkish and Russian
baths are unsafe, and may in certain con
ditions be positively dangerous. In
cases Of heart disease, a tendency to
apoplexy or congestion OF the brain Rus
sian or Turkish baths are exceedingly un-
safe, and a a general rule 1T may be
stated that this class of bath should never
be INDUCED in without the advice Of a
physician. The tub bath suits most of
us. but the temperature in every case
should be high enough to prevent chills,
and this remark applies also to sponge
baths, which are the safest, and may,
with advantage, be taken every day.

Most of our young readers will be SUI
prised to hear that the well known nur-
sery song of MARY Had a Little Lamb
is a true story, and that MARY" is still
living. About seventy years ago she was
a little girl, the daughter of a farmer in
Worcester county, Massachusetts,. She
was very fond of going with her father
to the fields to see the sheep, and n
day they found a baby lamb which was
thought to be dead. Kind hearted little
Mary, however, lifted it up into her
arms, and as it seemed to breathe she
carried il home, made it a warm bed
near the stove and nursed il tenderly.
Great was her delight when, after weeks
of careful feeding and watching, her
little patient began to grow well and
strong, and o after it was able to run
about. 1t knew its young mistress per-
fectly, always came at her call and was
happy only when at her side. One day
it followed her to the village school. and,
not knowing what else to do with it, she
put il under her desk and covered il with
her shawl. There it staid until Mary
was called up TO the teachers desk to
say her lesson. and then the lamb walked
quietly after her, and the other children
burst out laughing! So the teacher had
to shut the little girls pet in the wood
shed until school was out.
Soon after this a young student, named
John Rollstone, wrote a little poem about
Mary and her lamb and presented it TO
her. The lamb grew to be a sheep and
lived for many years, and when at last
il died. Mary grieved so much for 1t that
Der mother took some of its wool, which
was las white as snow" and knitted a
pair Of stockings for her to YEA in re-
membrance of her darling. Some years
after the lambs death, Mrs. Sarah Hall,
a celebrated woman who wrote books.
composed some verses about Mary's lamb
and added them to those written by John
Rollstone, making the complete poem as
we know it. Mary took such good are
of the stockings made of her lambs
fleece that when she was a grown up
woman she gave one OF them to a church
fair in Boston. As soon as it became
known that the stocking was made from
the fleece Of ''Mary's little lamb" every
one wanted a piece of IL: so the stock
ing was raveled and the yarn cut into
short pieces. Each piece was tied to a
card on which MARY wrote her full
name, and those cards sold so well that
they brought the large sum of $40 in
the Old South church.--American Agri-
culturist.

The Manitoba people have unques-
tionably a real grievance, or, rather,
several grievances, chief among which
is the pressure, provoking and tyrran-
nicsl, OF the Canadian Pacific monop-
oily. The organs OF the Tory govern
ment do not seem at all disposed TO
persuade or pscify them. Indeed, the
Montreal Gazette bluntly tells the
Manitobans that what they want 10
"rest from political agitation" That
is the remedy which 10 thrust at Ire
land, but fortunately Irish and Mani.
tobans are aware that they will v
get anything they want unless they
agitate.
